First Days

It's been almost two months and I still count every day. I'm not sure if I am ready to write a blog about the loss of my rabbit who I had for six years but I will try. The morning I found out I didn't eat breakfast. And I barely ate that day. For the next week I barely ate anything and actually lost a few pounds. While this isn't a good thing I realized that it is part of the grieving process and you have to let what your body feels feel (already I am crying). When I brought his body to be cremated that was when I had to go through no appetite again and quite a bit of exhausting crying and spilling of emotions. In my opinion I think everyone needs to see a therapist on a weekly basis but I think this is a time when you really need to see one. This is when you need help. It's when you need to spill everything out. You need to talk about all the fun times you had (I promise just thinking of them will make you laugh, and cry at the same time). I was glad when I really realized why I was crying. And maybe you will too. I was crying because I was going to miss all the fun we had. If I had not had any fun with my bunny (Lila) I would have had nothing to cry about. But I did. The first few days you need to just listen one hundred percent and be in tune one hundred percent with your body. If your body doesn't want to eat or drink anything then don't. If your body wants to, then eat and drink. Just listen to your body.
